I read that Christopher Plummer only did the Sound of Music because he wanted to sing, but they dubbed his voice with someone else's 🙄

Really? But it suits him and sounds like it should be him. Shame he was too old for The Masked Singer. He could have had his moment.

Good grief, you've never watched the Fisher King! You're in for a treat. Wish I hadn't watched so I could come to it fresh. I know the dialogue. Don't watch with little 'un though as there's an upsetting restaurant scene at the beginning. Sad. So miss Robin Williams. This film is right up there with No1 Some Like It Hot! We need a fave film thread. edit/ Bill Lee dubbed CP but it really does seem like him and in my mind is! Back To The Future... Mr Sandman

Maybe I have never watched it as it has Robin Williams in it and I've never been a fan. There are probably only two of his films I like.
We need have a film review thread Ditto so go ahead and start posting, especially your faves and I will join you. It doesn't have to be just reviews!

How come you're not a fan? He could be very American in his humour, Mork and Mindy was too much for me, but Daph used to watch it. He was a bit 'tears before bedtime' a tad too much but I loved him in his films. Which two do you like? I can't start the thread otherwise it looks like I'm taking over the forum, it's my name all over, I find it a bit embarrassing.

I watched the first series with Daph back in the day, when we lived together in our old house. I wish we were still there. I didn't know James was in it! I'd like to see that.

Still on the Blues Brothers theme, the undisputed Queen of Soul, the late, great Aretha Franklin

RIP that lady. We used to watch The Blues Brothers all the time. I'm taking the opportunity to listen while Mum is reading in bed. Thanks for sharing.

Fab. I lurve Robert Downey. I've got Twist Or Stick on in the background, an ancient music thing I found on Talking Pictures telly channel. From 1964 but completely passed me by. Probably too young and I don't think we had a telly at the time. We did get the Bunty every week tho' and they were in that! As a comic strip I think. It was the fat one with glasses that caught my attention. Empathy! Interesting. www.covmm.co.uk/2016/2020/07/07/the-orchids/
